Boost your career potential with an affordable degree from a leader in online education.

If you're a Prince George's County (Maryland) Government employee, or the spouse or legal dependent of an employee, you can take advantage of several education benefits thanks to an alliance with University of Maryland Global Campus, a leader in online education for working adults. Save up to 25 percent on out-of-state tuition for most UMGC programs and get your $50 application fee waived when you apply as a new student.

Tuition Discount Details

This discount will be applied to out-of-state tuition for eligible students in most programs.* This discount cannot be combined with certain scholarships or discount programs, including the Maryland Completion Scholarship, the Military New Graduate Student Savings Program, the Alumni Succeed Again Scholarship, and the discount for out-of-state community college alliances. Discounted tuition rates may not fall below the standard in-state rate or any special tuition rate offered to eligible active-duty military servicemembers, their spouses, or dependents.

Turn your associate degree into a bachelor's degree for $12,000 or less.

UMGC offers eligible Maryland community college graduates the opportunity to earn a bachelor's degree at a significantly reduced cost with the Completion Scholarship. Award recipients can complete a bachelor's degree program for $12,000 or less, well below the typical tuition cost for in-state students. If you have earned an associate degree from a Maryland community college, you are guaranteed admission to UMGC if your conferral date is listed on your official community college transcript.
